Doorbell Camera
on July 31, 2023

from Riverdale, GA
This doorbell camera is a great alternative to the Ring camera. The additional feature of popping up on your Roku tv and speaking is a great feature.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Worked fine for a couple weeks, then you find out it doesn't have the ability to recharge. This is a common problem with no solution, posted on many message boards. At this point point, you no longer have receipts and packaging to return. Roku does not offer any help for this issue.

Hi Law2337, we appreciate you taking a moment to share your feedback. This is unusual and we'd like to learn more so that we can escalate it to a member of our team to investigate. Please visit support.roku.com/contactus where you can connect with an agent who can help.
As a quick tip, always be sure to use the charging cable and power block that come included with your doorbell. Not all cables are created equally and we've noticed that customers who use alternative cables may not have the best experiences.
Thanks! Roku Customer Advocate

Hi Benita, thank you for choosing our product! We’re here to help. Have you encountered any error messages or codes on the Roku Smart Home app? If you haven't already, please try uninstalling and reinstalling the app. Make sure that both the doorbell and the app are up to date. You might also want to test the app on another mobile device to see if that makes a difference. Please note that Roku doorbells don't have a micro SD card slot, this is only available with our cameras. To access video recordings and other premium features, we suggest purchasing a Roku Home Subscription. You can find more information at https://www.roku.com/products/smart-home/smart-home-subscription. If you need further assistance, feel free to contact us at https://support.roku.com/contactus. Your feedback is very important to us as we strive to improve our services. We hope this helps! Roku Customer Advocate

Don’t buy- is defective and Roku doesnt care
on May 7, 2023
Posted by: rokuSUCKS
You will be wasting your money. The backplate is built HORRIBLY and doesn't attach correctly to the wedge. Or maybe it is the wedge or the slots in the back of the camera that are the issue. Who knows. And if you contact customer service to ask for directions, guess what? DIRECTIONS DON'T EXIST FOR ATTACHING THE WEDGE TO THE BACKPLATE CORRECTLY. Either that, or Roku KNOWS that their product is dysfunctional and so they are purposely not making directions because they know that no matter what you do, nothing is going to make it work because something is wrong with the way the backplate or the wedge or the slots in the back or the camera are built. Also, don't bother contacting their customer service cuz Roku makes them ask you a bunch of unnecesary questions and then they will repeatedly dodge DIRECT questions by saying "I'm sorry to hear that." It is wild. I have no idea how such a horribly run company is still in business. Roku- you should be embarrassed by the quality of your products and your customer service. (The individual customer service agents are not the issue, it is Roku’s ridiculous policies for how the agents have to communicate with customers that is the issue. And the fact that the agents can’t even help customers because Roku doesn’t even make complete directions for their products.)
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi, thanks for reaching out. This is valuable feedback that you've shared and we're going to be passing this along to our Customer Support and Product teams.
In the meantime, we'd like to offer some assistance to getting your doorbell securely attached to the wedge. Start by installing the angled wedge to your wall using the screws provided. Then, you will take the backer plate and align it with the screw holes on the wedge. Before you screw it in, make sure that the posts in the 4 corners of the backer plater are facing outwards and upwards. Once the backer plate is screwed into the wedge on the wall, you are ready to mount your doorbell!
The doorbell will slide right onto these aforementioned posts. It should fit snugly and be quite difficult to remove again from the wall.
We hope this helps but if you're still having any issues, please reach out to our team directly at customer.advocate@roku.com so that we can assist.
Thank you! Roku Customer Advocate

Worked a few days then nothing
on March 9, 2025
Posted by: David
from San Antonio Texas
Just bought the wired/wireless video doorbell. Charged it up, connected to my wifi and for 4 days it worked. This morning the doorbell light started flashing so I put it to charge. (0430). It's now 1900 and should be fully charged. Light slowly flashing blue and doesn't connect to my wifi. Tried reaching out to customer service however, sadly no one is answering. I've reset the chime several times, unplugged it, waited for a count of 30, plugged it back in. Pressing the reset button doesn't work either. If I can't get it to work by tomorrow morning, I'm taking it back to the store to swap it out, get a refund. No matter the solution, I'll leave the review for later.
**had to pick a star so for now only one **

Hello David! Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. Have you encountered any error messages or codes on the Roku Smart Home app? We recommend restarting your router and moving your device closer to it. Additionally, try reducing the number of other devices using your network. Please ensure that the app on your mobile device is updated to the latest version. You might also want to test the app on a different mobile device to see if that resolves the issue. If the problem persists, feel free to contact us at https://support.roku.com/contactus for further assistance. We hope this helps! Roku Customer Advocate
